Welcome to the New York State Historical Literature Collection

The Cornell University Library New York State Historical Literature is a collection of selected monographs, pamphlets and other materials with expired copyrights chosen from from the Cornell Library's extensive collection of New York State Literature. These were materials that were brittle and decaying and in need of rescue.

These materials were digitally scanned and facsimile editions on acid free paper were created. For more information, please visit the About page.
